Kind of like the WWF or all those folks who keep the National Enquirer in business.
No problem Alec. Say hello to the rest of the Baldwin clan for me.

I'd like to see someone get through and ask cubby something about the Morales government or how he thinks we should handle the tri-border region's problems or the PRC/Noranda issue or how World Bank environmental policies effectively shut middle-tier economies out of the process and cause them to cancel or downsize projects needed to grow or any one of a hundred issues that impact us a hell of a lot more than some poor murdered girl in the Caribbean.
Hannity plays to the room temperature IQs in the country. If you're impressed I'm sorry.
Not at all. Your attempts to sound well read and intellectually superior are what I'm used to hearing from the Dems as they proclaim their membership in the mensa club.
Personally I don't care and I doubt Hannity much cares that many people on hear think they should have his spot because they are smarter than him. I don't get into resume/my diploma-is-bigger-than-yours on the internet because frankly, no one gives a rats butt. You may have your opinion of Hannity and those who like him, it doesn't mean you are right.
It's the WWE now.
Obviously you haven't listened to the show lately. Sean only uses, "You're a great American" when someone says it to him. And no, if you don't like Sean Hannity, then it doesn't make you a lesser American. BTW, that phrase wasn't started by Hannity, but by Greg from Cincinnati.
I disagree with your assessments that he is a blow-hard, and like Mort Downey.
It's a shared core value system that makes his show so successful, which is why Air America tanked...no core values.
Bwahahahaha!
Bwahahaha! I was going to make a similar comment, but use "NASCAR" instead.
No substance? No originality? No charisma? You really do have a appropo name...Lunatic Fringe. The numbers don't lie for both his show and the Freedom Concerts. But thanks for the laugh.
Great pic! That concert was fantastic!
Howard and Oprah are entertainers. O'Reilly, Hannity, Levin, Gallegher, Elder, etc are pundits.
You got that right! And thanks for giving me the intel on where they get their kool-aid. Now, let's get the coordinates and smoke that thing! Can you imagine anyone thinking that Garofalo could win any argument? Well, it made for a great laugh!
Thank you for your service! You are a great American!
Numbers mean nothing. Stern pulled in 20 million listeners at his peak in terrestrial radio, and he had no substance, originality, or charisma. OK, maybe a little originality. All Hannity has going for him is that on most stations he's squeezed in between Rush and some other decent host. In the afternoons, I only flip over to WBAP to get Dallas traffic.
And judging from the other posts, I'm not alone in thinking of Hannity as a no-talent, former construction worker hack!
What are you keeping in business?
When? A Baldwin got something right? Maybe Billy, but his brother...not a chance.
Seriously, this is FR. There are thousands of posters on here who think every GOP politician not named Tancredo is a RINO. That there are many envious Freepers on here who trash Hannity is no surprise.

Most folks I know who are interested in global politics and how they impact on the world we are leaving for our children could talk easily about the issues I mentioned, and much more. Hannity couldn't and you seem to think that even mentioning them means that I'm posturing as intellectually superior.
Thank you for making my point about his core audience.
Weren't you the one that made the case for the WWF? I guess you and your WWF fan friends are the ones bashing Hannity, while his employers give him a raise based on numbers AND feedback. Someone in power saw talent and put him on the air, and it wasn't to be a filler. But there is a big question. If you don't like him so much, why are you wasting your time posting on someone you dislike so much? Why don't you find another thread and be more "productive", hmmm?
